Love Again: Flash Marriage with My Arrogant Sweetheart Chapter 215 - Meet Wang Xiaoman By Chance

Chapter 215 Meet Wang Xiaoman By Chance

Huo Yunqi’s eyes darkened as he placed the cooked meat on Xia Luobing’s plate, “Let’s eat first.”
He believed in Charlotte’s judgement and her alertness as a criminal policeman. Since she felt that there was something wrong with the two of them, it must be abnormal.
“Luo Bing, it’s really you!”
Above his head came a surprised laugh. Xia Luobing put down the chopsticks in his hand and looked up at Wang Xiaoman, who was staring at him. “What a coincidence.”
Wang Xiaoman actually took the initiative to greet her?
Could it be that she was thinking too much?
No!
Just as this thought flashed through her mind, Charlotte firmly rejected it. She trusted her own judgment. That man’s back was very familiar. She must have seen him somewhere … but where?
“Ice?” Huo Yunqi held Charlotte’s ice hand across the table and said, “Everyone’s gone.”
Only then did Xia Luobing regain her senses. Wang Xiaoman had already returned to her position. She looked very calm as she chatted and laughed with that man.
“Let’s eat.” Xia Luobing pinched her eyebrows and smiled apologetically at Huo Yunqi. “Probably an occupational disease.”
Huo Yunqi’s eyes flashed and he did not say anything else. He gently advised Xia Luobing to eat more.
When she returned home at night, Xia Luobing was still thinking about meeting Wang Xiaoman in Hotpot City. She squatted on the sofa with her hands crossed over her knees and her brows knitted tightly.
“Bing Bing, what’s wrong with you?” Yunqi poured a glass of water into Xia Luobing’s hand and said worriedly, “What happened?”
Xia Luobing put his hands in his hair and rubbed it a few times. “I must have seen that man! I must have seen him!” He said irritably.
There was a blurry outline in her mind. A man’s facial features were not clear, as if they were separated by layers of thick gauze. No matter how hard she looked at them, she could not see them clearly.
“Ice.”
Huo Yunqi rarely saw Xia Luobing like this. Her eyes tightened. She sat on the sofa and placed her shoulders on top of Xia Luobing’s. She put her head on her lap and pressed her temples with her fingers.
“I can’t remember.” Xia Luobing murmured, her voice filled with deep frustration. “Where exactly did you meet him?”
Huo Yunqi stopped moving his fingers and lowered his head to kiss Charlotte’s forehead, “Be obedient, don’t think too much.”
“But … alas, alright.” Xia Luobing sighed and tried to get rid of the weeds in his heart. He tried to calm himself down and muttered for a long time, “Yunqi, I miss my mother.”
At the age of sixteen, her mother’s accidental death sent her world from heaven to hell. The appearance of Wang Xiaoman and Xia Luoxin caused her father’s trust to collapse completely.
Even though many years had passed, it was still very sad to think about it now.
Huo Yunqi was stunned. The two of them had known each other for so long, and the people in his arms had never mentioned these things before. Therefore, he did not interrupt her and just listened quietly.
“My mother is very beautiful and proud.” Xia Luobing smiled softly, her voice filled with helplessness and desolation. “But similarly, she’s very fragile.”
Otherwise, she would not have chosen to commit suicide regardless of her young daughter after learning about Wang Xiaoman and Charlotte’s existence.
“Ice” Huo Yunqi gripped Xia Luobing’s slightly cold fingertips. His heart suddenly ached. He and her son had been together for so many years, but he had never discovered that there was such a deep wound in her heart.
Xia Luobing laughed softly, “I’m fine, but I suddenly remembered this matter … Am I very strange today?”
She had never been a sentimental person, but today she always thought of the past. At that time, she was as simple and happy as a transparent butterfly. She had never thought of the coming storm.
“Heavy rain … heavy rain …” Xia Luobing’s eyes suddenly tightened. His fingers unconsciously gripped Huo Yunqi’s arm and her body trembled uncontrollably. “It was raining heavily that day … Mom jumped down from upstairs …”
She pushed away her mother’s room and saw her mother in a lavender dress jump down from the second floor like a ragged butterfly.
All of the memories that had been deliberately sealed in dust surged over like a tide. They were surging and fierce, as if a man-eating ferocious beast was about to devour Xia Luobing.
“Ice!”
Huo Yunqi looked at the confused and helpless woman. His heart ached uncontrollably. He didn’t know how to calm her down. He held her shoulder tightly with both hands, allowing her to feel her existence in the endless confusion.
“Bing Bing, wake up! It’s all over!” Huo Yunqi said in a deep voice. The power and temperature in his palm were transmitted to Xia Luobing’s body. “Wake up.”
The pitch-black night sky seemed to have been torn apart by someone. Light and warmth slowly seeped in. Xia Luobing’s chaotic eyes gradually became focused. He looked at Yunqi Ho, who was gradually becoming clear in front of him, and said, “I remember now.”
She remembered the man’s back.
She saw the man’s back the day her mother died.
“I stood on the balcony on the second floor and watched as the paramedics hurriedly carried my mother to the hospital. The man also left.” Xia Luobing tried to calm himself down and recall the situation. “He was wearing a grey trench coat and left with an umbrella.”
Huo Yunqi’s brows furrowed. Was it really just a coincidence that a man related to Wang Xiaoman appeared at the scene of Xia Luobing’s mother’s suicide? Is there something else
Xia Luobing thought of this as well. A terrifying thought suddenly flashed through her mind. She grabbed Yunqi’s finger and said anxiously, “Could Mom be …”
She didn’t say the rest, but the meaning was self-evident, if her mother hadn’t committed suicide back then
Things that were already blurry suddenly became clear in her mind. Xia Luobing remembered that her parents were always quarreling during that time. Her mother had once asked her very seriously who she was willing to live with if they got divorced
Thinking about it, at that time, her mother had already prepared for a divorce. How could a person who had already planned to divorce suddenly commit suicide?
Questions gushed over like a tide, as if they would swallow Charlotte’s ice at any moment.
“Bing Bing, this matter needs to be considered for a long time.” Huo Yunqi saw Xia Luobing gradually calm down and said slowly, “After all, it has been many years. It will definitely be difficult to reopen the investigation.”
And if you’re not careful, you’ll scare the crap out of them.
Xia Luobing stretched out her hand and pressed her forehead. Facing Huo Yunqi’s worried gaze, she said guiltily, “I’m sorry.”
She always seems to worry him.
Huo Yunqi embraced her again and said in distress, “Idiot!”
Most of the time, he felt that she was too strong and stubborn, so it was a pleasure for him to be able to rely on her and help her clean up the trouble.
“I will handle this matter properly.” Xia Luobing grabbed Yunqi’s arm and said in a deep voice. Perhaps she should talk to her father about what happened back then.
Huo Yunqi let out a “hmm” sound. The two of them sat half-nestled on the sofa. The warm light enveloped the two of them, revealing an indescribable warmth.
The next morning, Xia Luobing drove home. Wang Xiaoman and Xia Yan were watching TV and were surprised to see Xia Luobing.
“Bing Bing, are you not going to work today? Why are you here at this time?” Xia Yan was a little surprised, “Is there something wrong?”
Wang Xiaoman also smiled and greeted Xia Luobing, “Bing Bing, sit down first. This is the fruit Luo Xin just asked someone to buy. Try it.”
Xia Luobing smiled faintly and looked at Xia Yan, “Dad, I’m going on a business trip for a while. Before I leave, I want to take you to have a check-up.”
“What kind of body should I examine properly?” Xia Yan smiled and waved his hand. “It’s good that you have a job to do your own things. Don’t worry about me. Dad’s health is very good.”
Wang Xiaoman also interrupted, “Bing Bing, what your father said is right. I will accompany him to have a physical examination. You just need to be busy with your own work. However, you and Yunqi are going to have a wedding soon. Don’t always travel on business.”
If she didn’t know Wang Xiaoman’s identity and all her small actions over the years, Xia Luobing would have believed her kindness.
“Dad, I specifically asked for leave this morning, so don’t refuse.” Xia Luobing insisted, turned around and took Xia Yan’s coat, “Let’s go!”
Xia Yan smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you!”
Being cared for by his daughter like this made his heart feel very comfortable.
There weren’t many people in the hospital, and Xia Yan’s physical examination was done smoothly.
“Dad, there’s nothing wrong with your body. It’s just that your blood pressure is a little high. You need to pay more attention in the future.” Xia Luobing looked at the medical report and warned, “You have to obey me when you get old.”
Xia Yan looked at his daughter seriously and unconsciously wet his eyes, “Ice.”
Over the years, he could not help but sigh as he watched his daughter’s attitude towards him become more relaxed.
“Dad, I’m going to see Mom first. Are you going?” Xia Luobing said inadvertently, but the corner of his eyes could clearly see Xia Yan’s mouth trembling. For a time, she felt his eyes sour and his heart sour.
Ever since her mother passed away, she and Xia Yan had never talked about this issue. It was as if there was a deep gulf between the two of them, and they could never cross it.
There weren’t many people in the cemetery, and the gray tombstone was like a frozen flag that stood motionless.
Xia Luobing stood in front of a tombstone and looked at the familiar face in the yellowed photograph. His eyes were sour and she almost shed tears.
Mom, Bing Bing has come to see you. Forgive me for taking so long.
“Huiyun, Bing Bing and I have come to see you.” Xia Yan squatted in front of the tombstone and carefully wiped the dust off the tombstone with his sleeve. He said in a trembling voice, “I’m sorry for you.”
The wind blew and the clouds blew, and the surroundings of the cemetery were filled with indescribable desolation and desolation.
In front of a tombstone, the two of them were half-squatting and the other was standing, silent as if they were communicating with someone who had passed away for a long time.
After a while, Xia Luobing said in a hoarse voice, “Dad, let’s go back.”
When they returned, the car drove very slowly. Everyone in the car fell silent unexpectedly.
“Dad, why did you betray Mom?” Xia Luobing asked slowly. His voice wasn’t loud, but as soon as she said that, the atmosphere in the carriage froze. “I want to know what happened back then.”
Time and space seemed to have stopped. Xia Luobing slowly stopped the car by the side of the road. Looking at Xia Yan’s gray temples, she suddenly felt that she was a little cruel, but she wanted to know the truth.
